    I always loved how much utility minivans have, the amount of storage, cabin space, how they handle like a sedan, the luxury appointments you can only otherwise get in a hyper luxury vehicle like self closing doors, window shades, the double pane glass. I’m still blown away that it has a vacuum cleaner.

    I used to own a 2011 one and it was really great. There seem to be some really mixed reviews for this Odyssey fifth generation though. If you do your research online, there are lots of complaints for 2018-2019 models (transmission, electrical issues, battery, sliding doors opening on their own, etc). Not so much for 2020 on, maybe Honda took care of it after so many recalls.. Planning on seeing a 2021 model soon, last thing you want is a car you always have to be taking back to the dealer to be fixed. We'll see..

  • @volcalstone

    I have a 19 Pilot Touring AWD 8 but I always thought the Odyssey interior was nicer. If I didn't need AWD and had smaller kids I would go for this instead. I did have an Odyssey I past though so I have some credit to my words 😊.

    Where car reviewers often fail to appreciate the value of minivans is in the fact that they don't have children or move people. Minivans have the best balance of comfort and storage. The styling is based on taste, but if you want something with low surface area, maximum storage space, comfort for passengers (including kids), and reliability, the Honda Odyssey is the best possible vehicle. It will start and run every time for 10+ years. I don't know if Forrest has kids but his balanced review would seem to indicate he at least understands the value of minivans.

I live in Minnesota where annual snow is averaging from 36” to 70”. Driving in winter snow with FWD/RWD vehicle is always a struggle. Traded it in with Toyota Highlander and very happy since then.

    • @flyingchicken33
      @flyingchicken33 3 роки тому +4

      AWD system really messes with the van's chassis especially when the interior's now are very appartment like. If they add the drivetrain to the rear and a differential, plus the supporting beefier subframe and suspension. People will then start complaining about the interior space being crammed up. You also need to remember the headliner houses the vents for the rear climate controls. So adding an awd system will raise the rear seats up, and possibly lose the large cargo area. Minivans actually don't need AWD system, their weight across the board is well distributed, and i don't think owners will want a minivan to do rock crawling. A good set of winter tires does the trick.. I am in the industry and i work with Intact.

  • @jamesf791
    @jamesf791 3 роки тому +1

    While this is a nice nice minivan, and they are great cars. I think the 2021 Toyota Sienna will be a better seller. I say this for four reasons. First, no matter what trim you get on the 2021 version they are all hybrid and get like 10 mpg better than the previous models. Second, the Sienna also has the only minivan that is AWD. Third, their vacuum is located with the middle row which make vacuuming much easier. Lastly, they have a built in refrigerator in it. Now what Honda Odyssey has which is better is you can take out the middle seats. I also think the Odyssey is longer as well. In my own personal opinion I think the 2021 Sienna is the best minivan.
